What are you waiting for?
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
You will never be younger than you are today.
Imagine – at the end of 2008 you’ll be a year older. In 2018 you’ll be ten years older than you are right now.

Are you stressed? A little anxious?
Feeling the very opposite of calm and in control?
Does it feel like chaos surrounds you? Chaos calls you like a siren song, luring you onto the rocks hidden in the midst of a stormy sea?

Each individual incidence [...]

It seems I am perpetually late to parties.
I am not late to meetings. I normally manage to meet all my deadlines. I arrive at the dentist on time (even early, as happened recently!)
But parties? I don’t know what it is, but by the time I arrive, the party is in full swing, the music is [...]

The effervescent, outrageously extrovert Chris Owen (dear friend) of Pink Apple fame has taken her newest offering out of the oven. It’s steaming hot, crisp, tart but sweet… the perfect Apple Tart!
Why not pop on over and let Chris know what you think of her new, personal blog?
